Backyard Renovation & Privacy Landscaping in Grand Rapids, MI

This Grand Rapids homeowner came to us looking to reclaim their overgrown and underutilized backyard. The existing patio was made up of multiple mismatched materials that lacked cohesion—and, worse, had been improperly installed.

We began by clearing out the old hardscaping and starting fresh with a clean design. The centerpiece of the new layout is a spacious brick patio, which provides plenty of room for relaxing and entertaining. We also installed multiple walkways that connect the patio to various entry points throughout the backyard, creating an intuitive flow through the space.

To restore a sense of privacy and tranquility, we incorporated large-scale plantings along the perimeter—strategically placed to screen views of neighboring yards while enhancing the natural beauty of the landscape.

This Grand Rapids backyard transformation is a great example of how thoughtful design and quality craftsmanship can turn an overlooked space into a functional and inviting outdoor retreat.
